A new prostate cancer campaign has been launched today urging men to WATCH for any symptoms that could be related to your prostate health, TALK with family and friends about their prostate health and ACT by going to see their GP if they have any concerns and over 50  or when they are over 45 with a family history.

The Marie Keating Foundation’s ‘Stand Up for Your Prostate’ campaign is looking to empower Irish men to be more open and comfortable discussing their health.  Some 3,550 men are diagnosed with the disease every year.

So, have you battled with prostate cancer yourself, have you thought about prostate cancer, have you gone for that check up to your GP and are you comfortable enough to have that conversation with your friends and family?

Numerous listeners came on to speak to Susan Keogh about their own journey and experiences of living with Prostate Cancer.
